Totally Off Topic

I enjoy watching the MSM writhe in agony over "citizen" journalism. As they whine and complain and resist change, their ad dollars are precipitously declining. If you are interested, Silicon Alley Insider has a good recap of recent trends.

Their prediction: In ten years newspaper circ will be a quarter of what it is today. Maybe less.

But where are those ad dollars going? The article's author believes it will migrate to online venues.

Here's the URL if you are interested. [Link: www.alleyinsider.com...]

UN vs. Goracle: Strongly worded letter issued.....
UN urges biofuel investment halt

The UN's new top adviser on food has urged a freeze on biofuel investment, saying the blind pursuit of the policy is "irresponsible".

Olivier de Schutter also wants curbs on investors whose speculation is, he says, driving food prices higher.

UN officials liken the rise in food prices to a silent tsunami, threatening 100 million of the world's poorest.

The use of food crops for alternative sources of energy like ethanol is one factor behind the price hike.

Anyone interested in the British elections yesterday? it was a stunning conservative victory.

"Preliminary results from the 159 local authorities that held elections (local polls are staggered so that not everyone votes at the same time) suggest that Labour has scored its worst performance in local elections for 40 years. Labour seems to have polled just 24% of the total, a full 20 points behind the opposition Conservatives and a point behind the Liberal Democrats."

"What Blockade?" - see- "The Real Cuba" - or better yet - [Link: www.tecun.cimex.com.cu...] - DELL COMPTERS, H/P PRINTERS and STUFF FROM CISCO SYSTEMS have been "available" in CUBA for ages - as long as you are willing and able to pay the Castro Regime TWICE what you would pay for them in the USA. Same goes for "Chinese Rice Cookers" - Por Cubanos - $70, for me +/- $40 including tax and delivery from Target, with steamer accessories included. The "RAW DEAL" continues "en Cuba" as it has for the last 49 years.

I can tune a guitar from a telephone

I know enough to know I can't. I have played for 30+ years, and I still use a tuner to get it perfect. Oh I can get it really close without a tuner, but I can't get it perfect, and I am a freak about out of tune guitars. Its like nails on chalkboard to me. The guys in my band gave me a bumper sticker for my guitar case with a picture of a skull that says "Tune it or DIE!"

But not everyone still practices human sacrifice on Christians.

A young Indian evangelist and shepherd has been killed by Hindu priests seeking human sacrifices for a Hindu 'goddess', the latest in a series of violent attacks against Christians in India, BosNewsLife learned Wednesday, November 7.

In under a year over 190 cases of Hindu persecution of Christians.

After the BJP came into the coalition- and they are now in power, there has been a climate of impunity for any acts of violence that are committed against non Hindus.

Still, the Hindu persecution of Christians is pretty rare compared to the 185 attacks by the RoP.

re: #108 Ma Sands

Here's my explanation. It could be wrong. By placing the "chaotic" system on the two cylinders that have to roll back and forth in unison in response to the net force from the 5 swinging weights, then each of the weights will be subjected to the same counterforce and eventually the 5 individual periods will create a net left and right vibration that overtakes the weaker individual forces contributing to it making them all conform. The slower ones will speed up. The faster ones will slow down.

I would make a hypothesis that if all the weights were equal the prevailing period would be the average of the 5 initial ones, and as more and more metronomes were involved it would take longer for the system to synchronize.

The metronomes don;t speed up or slow down, they are all running at the same frequency, but they are out of phase. The net energy of the swinging masses is conveyed to the board, which rocks on the cans. That force is in turn returned to the metronomes. The dominant wave reinforces and eventually they all swing in time.

To understand militant Hinduism, one must examine its domestic roots as well as foreign influence. In the 1930s Hindu nationalism borrowed from European fascism to transform ‘different’ people into ‘enemies’. Leaders of militant Hinduism repeatedly expressed their admiration for authoritarian leaders such as Mussolini and Hitler and for the fascist model of society. This influence continues to the present day.

I have the sound turned way low on my laptop (the Missus is asleep next to me) but that was a long sine wave increasing in frequency making the shapes change, right? If so, you can test your hearing as to when the sound stops. Most middle aged people have some gaps in their hearing spectrum, in other words, the sound will stop and then resume, depending on the frequency range of your particular deafness. If you hear one long ascending tone, with no silent gaps, then your hearing is good.

This guy is walking on the beach when he finds a lantern. He rubs it and a genie come out and grants him 3 wishes.

"However, says the genie - Whatever you wish for your ex wife will get double what I give you"

The guy thinks for a moment and says he wishes for a million bucks.

The genie shakes his head, blinks up the money and reminds hime his ex wife just got TWO MILLION BUCKS!

The guy thinks awile longer and says he wants a brand new Porsche.

"Dude!" yells the genie. Your ex is gonna get TWO of these! "What are you thinking?!?"

The guy thinks a while longer and starts to smile.
"Now I want you to beat me half to death."

For those interested, I have used spamcop.net for years to filter my email. Every piece of spam, some 62000 so far, has been parsed, traced and reported back to the sender ISP and the host ISP. Interestingly, the level of intelligence of these spammers is such that 90+ % of my spam actually comes to ####@spamcop.net. Actually, that is more an comment on the people who pay for the spam per address, rather than the spammers who sucker them, but I don't care how much I publish my spamcop address. The more the merrier.

However, while the Chinese, the Italians, the Spanish, the Brazilians, the Japanese and a few Germans are on the top of my shit list, so are Road Runner (US), Sprint, Verizon and a number of other US senders (seldom the site hosts however). Th rest comes from everywhere, but some of the most disappointing are Google and Yahoo who allow their web host sites to be used as redirects to other hosts like the Chinese, and what is worse is that they refuse to accept reports from users or spamcop without first going through a tedious form submission which is hard to find in the first place.

I suppose Google and Yahoo are now to important to deal with silly stuff like illegal drugs, porn and the like.

Then of course we have the Mastercards, Visas and so on who really grease the wheels of scum.

Yeh, that's life in the 21st Century....Anyone watch Blade Runner lately?

A lady was being abused her husband. She finally got sick of it and divorced him.

A couple years later, she was getting no action whatsoever. So she put an ad in the Personals.

"Man wanted for matrimony. No physical abuse tolerated. Must be able to satisfy me in bed"

A week later her doorbell rings. She opens the door, doesn't see anyone. A voice says, "Hey Lady, down here!"

She looks down, and there on her doormat is small man, obviously a quadruple amputee, no legs or arms, squatting on her doormat.

"I'm here about the personal ad" he says.

"Well, you're not exactly what I had in mind" she replied.

"Look, Lady, I read the ad. I got no arms, I can't hit you, I got no legs, I can't kick you"

"But, can you satisfy me in the bedroom?" she asked.

"Well, I rang your doorbell didn't I?"

little boy goes to his dad and asks, 'What is Politics?'

Dad says, 'Well son, let me try to explain it this way:

I am the head of the family, so call me The President.

Your mother is the administrator of the money, so we call her the Government.

We are here to take care of your needs, so we will call you the People.

The nanny, we will consider her the Working Class.

And your baby brother, we will call him the Future.

Now think about that and see if it makes sense.'

So the little boy goes off to bed thinking about what Dad has said.

Later that night, he hears his baby brother crying, so he gets up to check on him.

He finds that the baby has severely soiled his diaper.

So the little boy goes to his parent's room and finds his mother asleep. Not wanting to wake her, he goes to the nanny's room. Finding the door locked, he peeks in the keyhole and sees his father in bed with the nanny. He gives up and goes back to bed.


The next morning, the little boy says to his father, 'Dad, I think I understand the concept of politics now.'

The father says, 'Good, son, tell me in your own words what you think politics is all about.'

The little boy replies, 'The President is screwing the Working Class while the Government is sound asleep. The People are being ignored and the Future is in deep shit.

A man was in serious trouble. His life was spinning out of control. Everything was bad. Drinking horribly, his finances ruined, friendless, in desperation, he finally visits a monastery.

The Father interviewed him. "My son, what makes you think you are suited for this monastic order?". The new monk says "Father, my life is a wreck, you are my last hope, please, I beg you, take me in to your order".

The Father says, "Well, my son, this order is very strict. There are no creature comforts, and in addition to hard work and privation, we have an oath of silence. You get two words a year, which you may speak only in my presence. Are you still interested?"

The new monk says "Yes, Father, please!"

And so the new monk joined the order.

After a year, the Father came to the new monk and say, "My son, a year has passed, what are your two words for this year?"

The new monk said "BED HARD!"

The Father, somewhat annoyed, made a note of it.

Another year passes, the Father came to the new monk and says, "My son, a year has passed, what are your two words for this year?"

The new monk said "FOOD BAD!"

His displeasure increasing, the Father makes note of the new monks 2 words and another year passes.

The Father came to the new monk and says, "My son, a year has passed, what are your two words for this year?"

The new monk said "I QUIT!"

And the Father shrugs his shoulders and says

"Well, I am not surprised, you've done nothing but bitch the whole time you've been here..."

Interesting...

I've been checking out a bunch of British news sites about yesterday's election, and I noticed something is missing. All of the analysis cite economic woes as a major factor [probably true], a few also point to crime as a motivating factor [also probably true], but none I've seen so far mention immigration as a reason for Labour's loss. I wonder if the media over there is correct [it is an insignificant factor], or if they are so blinded by their own p.c. beliefs that they cannot comprehend the issue ever being important? Or could they still think they can spin it away?

The Taco Bell Chihuahua, a Doberman and a Bulldog are in a bar having a drink when a great-looking female Collie comes up to them and says, "Whoever can say liver and cheese in a sentence can have me."

So the Doberman says, "I love liver and cheese." The Collie replies, "That's not good enough."

The Bulldog says, "I hate liver and cheese." She says, "That's not creative enough."

Finally, the Chihuahua says, "Liver alone . . . cheese mine."

I wouldn't bet on any of the British MSM tripping over it; they've managed to skip over or side step the issue all through the election campaign.
Sigh.

You may be right. I hope the massive smack down of the status quo will wake up a few of the elites, but it may not. They probably think they can tamp it down and ride it out.

I'm afraid that the Western elites have locked into the present course, and would rather face weekly riots in the streets than change their direction.

In fact, the EU recently passed a law that had the death penalty in it [buried deep in an asterisk, in codicil, in an appendix], but not for the murder of its citizens, only for insurrection against the government! That pretty much sums it up. The worst thing a European can do, in the eyes of the EU, is threaten their power and position.

A rather confused shopper is having trouble finding strawberries in the produce section. Finally, she asks the produce manager where the strawberries are located. "Sorry, Ma'am, but we're out of strawberries."
Undaunted, the woman continues to look for strawberries and after ten minutes asks the same manager the same question. Somewhat surprised, the manager replies "Ma'am, I told you, we have no strawberries."
After fruitlessly searching yet again for strawberries, the woman seeks out the manager and asks him if there are any strawberries.
"Ma'am", he replies, "How do spell the 'blue' in blueberries?"
"Uh, b-l-u-e."
"Yes", says the manager, "and how do you spell the 'black' in blackberries?"
"B-l-a-c-k", she responded.
"Correct", says the manager. "Now, how do you spell the 'fuck' in strawberries?"
"But, there ain't no 'fuck' in strawberries", she says.
"That's what I've been trying to tell you, Ma'am."

Robert Jordan --fantasy, sci-fi stuff. Not the best writing, but 11 books that will keep you occupied until you are finished with them. He died so the 12th and final in the series is being finished by someone (his son, I think).

I do mostly sci-fi for escapism.

A Lizard recommended Edward Cline's Sparrowhawk for historical fiction a couple of years ago. I went thru the first 5 books in about 3 weeks. I have the sixth--recently published--sitting on my shelf.

Big INS raid here in the SF Bay Area. Mexican restaurant chain called "El Balazo" They got 63 illegals. Guy from the Mexican Consulate was just on the TV bitching about how INS did not give them advance notice of the raid. I am not making this up.

How long before the moonbats say we need the same thing --because Europe is soooo ahead of us?

Tomorrow? The day after?

The way they worship Europe is pathetic... especially because so few of them actually comprehend how different it is in reality.

Back in my bartending days, I got to know a cop from the Netherlands... he and his wife were in San Francisco for a few weeks, and they liked to hang out in dive bars like mine. He liked to tell stories about American tourists in Amsterdam who would get into legal trouble, and start demanding their rights. Not many understood that alot of the protections of the constitution are nonexistent over there.

He told me that the cops don't need a search warrant to enter a home, they only have to show their badge and demand entry! When I asked him how that could be, he showed me his badge, with the picture of the Queen on it, and said "She gave me permission."

The moonbats on the next stools were horrified... they always assumed Europe had more rights than us. A few eyes were opened that night!

re: #416 stevieray

I think back in the day when the uber, idle rich spent the season in Europe --they began the awful habit of thinking the Europeans soo much more refined. But most of them had to come back to America to make the money that allowed them to season in the Riveria in the first place.

We separated ourselves from England for a reason . . .

I have a few of Chan's older films on VHS. To Kill With Intrigue is one of my favorites. I dig 'em mostly because of their similarities to spaghetti westerns, style wise.

You've lost me on Williams --drawing a complete blank.

author: Walter Mosely
Character --Easy Rawlin's
first book in series: Devil in a Blue Dress --a very edited version of it was made into a movie with Denzel Washington --enjoyable and good movie, but not the same as the book.
